Eurovignette Directive

The Eurovignette Directive is a European law that sets rules for charging heavy vehicles, like trucks, for road usage across member countries. Its goal is to reduce traffic congestion and environmental impact by encouraging more efficient transportation. The directive allows countries to implement toll systems, either based on distance traveled, emissions, or both, ensuring fair and consistent charges. It promotes cooperation among countries to manage cross-border freight traffic effectively, supporting sustainable mobility and infrastructure funding within the European Union.
